PROGRAM NOTES
Originally commissioned by Dr. Jamal Duncan for the Arizona State University Wind Symphony, Lightning Round is a composition that depicts high energy and fast kinetic motion, as motivic ideas pass from one part to the other, becoming more intertwined. Like a lightning round of a video game, you must think quick on your feet to pass, and in this case, to make it through the composition.
